Michelle, ?hi again...and thanks....as far as efiles go...I really like Kupa.? I have an antique one (LOL) probably close to 15 years old! It's a UP-200...then about 6-7 years ago I bought aother Kupa..I think 2500...both are fine...I have had to send them in for "upkeep" on the ...(forget what it is called) the "handle" part ...it wasn't keeping the bits in tight enough....anyway they we are repaired for a nominal fee and returned promptly.? A co-worker had bought a Ram once and she had problems with it within the first year...and problems contacting them and servicing it.? i think she did get everything done but....I remember being thankful?I had my?Kupas.? The reason I have 2 is because I always wanted a back-up and then once I had 2 I kept one at the pedi station....used it all the time there! Premiere was changed to June ...hmmm about 3-4 years ago...I think.? I used to always go until?I moved back to NY... Entity acrylic was big a few years ago and I liked?it too...files like butter...but I sometimes had that rim of lifting, so I more or less stayed with CND (Creative) I love their Moxie ac liquid. I never have lifting with CND... I haven't used Minx yet but I did get a free sample in the mail...it's kinda like a full coverage decal that gets "shrink-wrapped" to fit the nail.? I am sure Athena can describe it better to you, or someone that is actually using it.? It comes in MANY designs and solids. I just started to do a few clients again after a years absence,?but most of my clients ...and friends still wear pink and whites.? I wish they would wear the "edge" nails or even stilettos...P+W's get so boring sometimes.... Good luck my friend!
?Pati Everyone has a photographic memory. Some, like me, just don't have any film. -----Original Message----- From: michelle clem <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thu, 26 Mar 2009 11:14 am Subject: NailTech:: Many Questions Ok so I haven't had too many replies to my first post.(thanks Pati for the warm welcome back, you have always been one of my favorite nailtech mentors and friends) I haven't been in the biz for over 3 yrs and I'm starting at my new salon on Monday. I have several questions: 1) I'm thinking of purchasing another e-file. My current U-power needs some maintenance and I was wondering where I could the best bang for my buck. I have seen several in the mags....PN125 is one I am entertaining and one from RAM products. Any advice? 2) I used Creative mainly in my other shops and am kinda wondering what everyone else is using right now. I have been outta the loop for so long and saw many new products in the mags. I went to a Tammy Taylor class and I"m just not sure I like the way the product works. I mean it's holding up great! But, the workability is so different from what I am used to. 3) How are stiletto nails formed? 4) What exactly are the MINX nails? Their website is not that informational in my opinion. 5) Are P/W's still going to be the mainstream of my business? 6) And when did they move the Premier Orlando show to June? Well, that's all I can think of for now. I feel so out of it and overwhelmed. Please help me out. Thanks ladies!!
